depends where abouts in london you are, I walked past the apple store in kingston last week and they had a poster in the window saying they had iP4's in stock...

Do Kingston have iPhone 4's in stock throughout the day do you know? I wanna go late evening on some days to buy one, but worried they won't be much point in going in and finding out they don't have any.
 
I am from Slovenia, and we don't have any iPhone officially here.
at the end of October (27th till 31th) I am going to visit London, UK. I was wondering, how can I get brand new iPhone 4 for me and one for my friend?
I had Apple Store @Regent Street in my mind, but I've heard that they run out of stock each day. What if I go on the 28th in the morning (like 5am or so) camping in front of apple store at regent street? Will I get one? Or will I wait for nothing? Are there any specific apple stores in London that get stocks more often than others?

Please help me and excuse me, my english really is rubbish.
 
Try online, I ordered mine (32gb) on 31/8, and despite being quoted a delivery date of 25/9 it turned up on 7/9.

lucky. waiting for my 32gb:

Order date: Sep 20, 2010
Estimated Shipping: 11 Oct, 2010
Estimated Delivery: 13 Oct, 2010
 
Orderd mine on 9/27.
Set to ship on 10/18
Set to arrive on 10/20
..I hope it's weeks earlier!

Your best bet is to order them online and have them delivered to someone in London you know. Supply constraints should be easing now and people are getting the phones way before the estimated 3 weeks. Good luck!

The last 3 posts have been saying how it is still taking the 3 weeks.
 
Ordered my 16Gb on 21 Sept, estimated shipping 12 Oct, delivery 14th Oct.

Just noticed on Uk site, estimated shipping down to 2 weeks.

On checking my credit card, I see that apple has released the block on my credit for the cost of the phone. Is that normal ?
 
Has anyone's phone arrived early recently? Mine is set to ship in 8 days. Can't wait.

My estimated shipping date is tomorrow with delivery on Thursday. If this slips I am stuffed as I am working overseas and my wife was going to bring the phone over to me on Friday. I don't get back to the UK until next February.:(
 
The anticipation is killing me, haha. I check about 10 times a day, hoping for an update!

It's kind of annoying that Apple are now quoting 2 weeks for iphone 4s from their UK store but haven't progressed the outstanding orders first. I've got one ordered from 26 Sep and it's still saying estimated shipping 18 Oct/deliver 20 Oct. If they can now ship them in 2 weeks, why aren't existing orders being progressed quicker too?
 
Ordered on 23 Sept, it still says
Estimated Shipping: 14 Oct, 2010
Estimated Delivery: 18 Oct, 2010

I hope it gets on his way today or tomorrow, because i ordered through borderlinx and they still have to process my order after apple dispatched it to their facility...

On the US site it now shows that my phone is being prepared for shipment :)

Hopefully it will be delivered before my wife leaves for the airport on Friday.
 
Odered mine on 6th Oct, stated Estimated 3 weeks deliver at the time of purchase but the next day the apple store had estimated delivery at 2 weeks.

Almost considered reordering as my delivery status hasn't changed and neither has the estimated shipping/delivery date.

If ordered on 6th I make shipping at
2 weeks = 20th Oct
3 Weeks = 27th Oct


From site:
Not yet shipped
Estimated Shipping: 27 Oct, 2010
Estimated Delivery: 29 Oct, 2010
 
Ordered mine on the 26th of September with 3 weeks as shipping...

Currently it says

Not yet shipped

Ships: 18 Oct, 2010
Delivers: 20 Oct, 2010

I was hoping it might have arrived by now :(

Mine is killing me - Yours is forever!!

Can't figure out why they're claiming 2 weeks delivery now when we're waiting nearly the full three.

I'm sure your may come end of this week Matty, purhaps 2moz!

I hope so! I could have gotten one from a T-Mobile store a few weeks ago but to me it's a rip off, £499 for 16GB and then £20 topup on top of it (even though I'm on contract) for an iPhone locked to T-Mobile. I want a 32GB and they wouldn't sell me one because they only give them to new contracts. So £520 for a 16GB iPhone locked to T-Mobile or wait an extra 2 weeks for 32GB unlocked iPhone for an extra £80!
 
Question for UK people

Since my iPhone is married to AT&T in the US, I brought an old Razr to the UK, and bought an Orange sim. It works as it should, but I can't get a straight answer if it will work in Italy at a higher rate than 29p, but lower than $1.49 for US phone. (I've probably only used 2-3 pounds of my 10.)
Thanks.
